...always presents excellent productions, and when I performed in “Don Giovanni” and “L’enfant et les Sortilèges” with LHO, I was very impressed with the professionalism. But, at the same time, I’ve always felt a bit uncomfortable with the lack of Harvard students in the productions. DHO actually makes use of the tremendous talent we have among our undergraduate community, and, in my opinion, the productions are equally high-quality...
...Manhattan, people are calling it the Rehabilitation of Norman Mailer or, less formally, Norman Goes Legit. Mailer, 62, "embattled aging enfant terrible of the literary world . . . champion of obscenity," as he once called himself, has been remodeling his image--from rebellious to respectable. Throughout the autumn, he acted as an occasional master of ceremonies on a Broadway stage. He spent time sweet-talking the State Department.

But the festival organizers, like the rubberneckers outside the Palais, are smitten by star quality. Sharon Stone, one of the few Hollywood actresses adept at radiating that old-time...
...suggest that the English channel could cash in on al-Jazeera's bad-boy rep with viewers who have become cynical about the mainstream media. "In the younger market, al-Jazeera actually carries a lot of street cred," he says. "It is perceived as being slightly antiestablishment, the enfant terrible of broadcasting." In a 4 1/2-min. p.r. video being prepared for potential distributors and advertisers, al-Jazeera execs refrain from using bin Laden's image but otherwise do little to downplay militancy. To a techno beat, the video shows a gunman with an AK-47 rifle, street mayhem in Jerusalem...
